triple chin



pregnant does make me happy. of course it does! i'm going to be a mother and will have a little kid!

but pregnant also makes my body change a lot! definitely my weight increase...ok, the fact that i've increased more than 10kgs within 7months pregnancy do scared me! but, that does not matter as long as baby growing well inside.

i think my cholesterol level also has been increasing even doctor does not say any word bout it. i realized this because my neck getting more flappy! like my dad =( but my dad is 53 while im 24! will this change to normal after this?

i got double chin..no i think this is triple chin already! oh baby, mummy being so kind to u by eating everything she craves for...hope u r doing fine inside...xoxo u!

okla, whatever it is, i think this is part of the hormone changes, it does make me feel unhappy bout the changes on my body currently. so better stop here...

the overdue post

last 29th dec was my hubby 25th birthday.
we went to Cherating to celebrate few days earlier because we got offday on the 24th.
stayed at D'village Resort in Cherating and I online ordered cupcakes for him.

Sebab terlupa bawa camera, so just amik pic guna camera hp,sbb tu overdue nak upload dlm blog..:P



abng was surprised with the cupcakes tp he already can teka that i did order something for him..just he thought the cupcake should arrive in kl not in cherating!hahha, luckily i found a good and reliable online selling cupcake located nearby Kuantan. okla, end up i'm the one who eat most of the cupcakes.

we went out for dinner at tanjung lumpur. at the famous Ana Ikan Bakar Petai. sebb takde cam, so no pictures of the dinner yg best n super mengenyangkan itu. we ordered ikan siakap bakar (size agak besar boleh makn utk 4 org, tp kitaorg makan berdua je, opss bertiga)..with sotong goreng tepung and tomyam campur and telur dadar + sayur . harga dah la mengejutkan sbb ktorg bajet should be around rm80+ sekali just rm56 je..cuma yg tak bestnya, this restaurant is tooo full!padat dgn ramai org especially big families...and nak tunggu ikar bakar siap is 1 hour ok! nasib baik ada order keropok lekor, so tak la kelaparan sgt..

and oh, on 29dec itself, i did make a surprise to him as well! bought him new running+badminton shoes! hope he likes it! but knowing my husband, selagi kasut yg ada sekarang tak koyak rabak, he will pakai the same kasut sampai la dah takleh pakai baru change to new shoes...so i guest, when he turns 26 baru he will wear the shoes i gave him:D

Beautiful Mess


Pregnancy is one of the most extreme times in a woman's life: extreme emotions, extreme moods, extreme appetite. I remember being so tired, but also incredibly ambitious. I was nervous about the baby's health, doctor's visits, needles and weight gain and yet I understood the real hope for the first time in my life. And the midst of pregnancy, when I become heavier than ever before, I somehow felt more beautiful than any previous time in my life. This body, which society says must be thin to be fashionable and is for display purpose only, now had a real purpose.

There are so many joys along the road to becoming a new mother-the least of which is the many people who love to tell you every little negative thing that happened to them during the pregnancy, the childbirth and those blessed first months with new baby. You announce your due date and everyone says ' Congratulations', right before they jump into their own story about their fifty-hour unmediated labor, followed by thirteen weeks of straight colic, teenage angst, and how they cannot get their grown children to leave home.

I love the special people in my life who tell me, "You're as big as a house" or " Enjoy sleep while you can." They show emotional sympathy of a hungry pit bull.

But I want you to know that no matter the pains or discomfort or fears, there will be no time in your life as sweet. Nothing will bring such a beautiful smile or fonder memories than when you think back to preparing for your baby. If the road to becoming a mom were difficult as it is joy-filled, then we would take it for granted. It is the aches and pains and little quirky weird things that happen along the way that make our stories unique, that tie us to our children with fierceness. We know what it cost to get them here, on Earth.

The rough edges of pregnancy are smoothed out by intense love and joy. For example: there is nothing like first kicks of your baby in the your womb. Of course, if you've made it to seventh month or beyond (Alhamdulillah I am at my/our seventh month this week) you will occasionally wish junior wasn't so aggressive.

My first child wedged his feet into my ribs so hard I was so sure he was trying to break out early. Because of this, I often said that I would be so much happier with my baby in my arms rather than a karate-chopping my insides. The things that were so hard to endure in the long minutes of every day become the things you miss as time moves on. Two months after my son was born, I became a liar. I missed his little kicks terribly. I missed his flip-flopping in the night. I had to have another one so I could feel it again.

No matter how many absolutely adorable pictures you get at Sears or Penney's, there will never bring those first ultrasound pictures bring. There is such an intense rush in knowing that there is really a baby growing inside you, and it's your son or your daughter!You can actually see them suck their thumbs or tickle their own toes (Yes, I was given chance to see these in my own womb, Alhamdulillah) For me, its a proof; it seemed to take the abstract and bring it all home. This confirms your motherhood: you must wear jeans that rise above the belly button(just kidding).

Here's the best part: all the leg shaving, makeup wearing,bikini waxing, eyebrow plucking, high-heel walking and hair fixing you've ever done or had to learn how to do; all the rude stares; catcalls;impolite gestures, and unequal treatment;anything and everything that makes being a woman hard, inconvenient, and tiresome-even pregnancy and labor-comes crashing down when you, at your weakest, become the strongest you've ever been and push your own child into this world, and you finally embrace a beautiful, messy joy that is your newborn.

As I stared at my son's quivering lips while he cried in the first few minutes after he was born, I was so proud. I was proud to be a woman, and no amount of pain or fear or stereotype placed upon me by society would ever change that again. I alone was equipped to care for and give birth to this boy. My body nurtured him for nine months and would keep fat on his thighs for a year more through breast-feeding.

It is an empowering feeling. We are told there so many things we can't do, and then we realize we are capable of the seemingly impossible. We triumph in the face of unspeakable difficulties!

And what they say is true! We forget the hardest parts of pregnancy, at least enough to go through it again. But God made pregnancy hard for a reason-nobody but a tired, pregnant woman could actually look forward to labor.

50 reasons to be glad you're pregnant Written for BabyCenter Malaysia

*i know i have copied and paste this article but reading all the 50 reasons to feel great being pregnant making my tears drop* Subhanallah*


We all have moments when we think, 'Never again!' during pregnancy: perhaps morning sickness is making you miserable or you're 10 days overdue with not even a hint of a contraction. To remind you that being pregnant can be fun, we've rounded up some of the nice things about being an expectant mum.

And why not share the things that have made pregnancy wonderful for you - just scroll down to the parents' tips box, below.

1 Relishing the early weeks when only you and your husband knew your special secret.

2 Knowing you've got nine whole months to plan, dream and fantasise.

3 Choosing maternity clothes - they've never been more practical or more sexy.

4 Now you've got the perfect excuse to pamper yourself - spending hours in a scented bath, enjoying a massage or rubbing soothing lotions into your growing bump.

5 Maternity leave when you will have two whole months (more if you work for a progressive, forward-thinking company) to enjoy your baby.

6 You can join a antenatal class and find a whole new bunch of friends (and don't forget our BabyCenter birth clubs: another great way to meet people due at the same time as you).

7 For once in your life you need to get heavier - pregnancy is Nature's way of making you feel good about putting on weight.

8 If this is your first baby, enjoy the next nine months sleeping late at weekends: you won't get many chances later on.

9 At last you've got the bosom you've always wanted, which means you also have...

10...a great excuse to buy lots of pretty new bras.

11 Finally, you can ask people to get off their seats for you in the LRT, train or bus.

12 At last you'll have something more than pot plants and cats to care for and nurture!

13 Suddenly you'll find you're getting lots of extra attention from parents, aunts and uncles, not to mention your husband.

14 You may find you develop a closer relationship with sisters, cousins or friends who are parents themselves. Congratulations, you've just won free admission to the parents' club!

15 Telling your mum, dad, sister, brother, aunt, dog and seventh auntie twice removed, the good news and watching their faces light up.

16 New talents! Whether it's knitting bootees or assembling a flat-pack cot, you'll suddenly find yourself trying out all sorts of new skills.

17 Suddenly you'll feel a new appreciation for your own mother and all she went through having you.

18 Decorating the nursery: one of the most exciting things you'll ever do.

19 Feeling those first fluttering kicks and thinking, 'Is that what I think it is? Or is it just wind?'

20 Feeling OK for sending your husband out for roti canai followed by double-choc chip ice cream and cendol.

21 Your parents digging out your old cot or pram, which they've kept safely all this time 'just in case'.

22 Going for healthy walks with your husband and getting fresh air in your lungs because it's good for you and good for your baby.

23 Enjoying the extra-vivid dreams you get in late pregnancy - and laughing about them with your friends.

24 Feeling a little pair of heels prodding under your diaphragm and knowing you'll soon be meeting the little person they belong to!

25 Choosing baby clothes and planning what you're going to buy.

26 Writing a pregnancy diary for your baby to read in the future.

27 Getting someone to take photos of you smiling over your enormous bump so that, one day, you can look back and be amazed you were ever that size.

28 Finding out how many people there are out there ready to care for you: grandma, grandpa, mum and dad, great grandaunt Bibi who used to scold you for playing masak-masak with her good china, doctors, nurses, breastfeeding counsellors...

29 Lying in bed with your husband's arms around you and your bump, knowing that love has created a new life.

30 Enjoying indulgences, such as evenings out, weekends away and anything else you might not be able to do so easily once the baby arrives.

31 Knowing that from now on, whatever happens, you'll never be bored again.

32 Making new friends whenever you go shopping - everyone has a pregnancy story to share.

33 You can spend whole evenings debating baby names... (don't forget to try our BabyCenter baby namer if you get stuck!)

34 Imagining what he or she will look like. Your sweet little ears, of course, and his sexy eyes!

35 Dreaming about, "My daughter the prime minister/pop star/brain surgeon."

36 Looking at your growing bump in the mirror and realising there's a person in there!

37 Making out a squirmy outline on the ultrasound monitor. Asking for the pic to take home and pinning it up next to your work station, or just keeping it in your bag to sneak looks at.

38 The expression on your husband's face as he sees the test strip turn blue, looks at your growing bump or feels the baby kicking.

39 Buying that first little cuddly toy for your baby, not somebody else's.

40 Making that phone call to your husband to tell him that - we're off! - labour has started.

41 Trying out all those exercises you learned at antenatal class and finding out that they actually work!

42 Being held and supported throughout a contraction by your husband or labour companion and knowing that you can trust them totally.

43 Finding out, as the contractions get tough, that your repertoire of swear words (in several languages!) is far more extensive than you ever realised!

44 Making an informed choice about pain relief and finding that it's right for you at that stage in labour.

45 That huge rush of pleasure and relief when, suddenly, all the pain and effort stops.

46 Looking into your newborn's eyes and falling utterly in love.

47 Hearing your husband tell his colleagues, the cleaning lady, delivery man and anyone else he can find because his joy and pride are overwhelming.

48 Celebrating! Whatever the time of day or night.

49 Making all those phone calls to announce the arrival. Telling everyone the news and hearing the excitement in their voices.

50 Waking up to see your baby sleeping next to you and thinking, 'Wow! This is real. I'm a mum!'

my baby's anomaly scan


Last friday, I had a detailed scan@anomaly scan for my baby =)
I was sad that my husband can't get leave to accompany me for the best moment of our marriage so far.
But I was lucky that my mother in-law and sister in-law were here in KL.So, both of them accompany me to Ampang Puteri for the detailed scan.
It took place around 30-40minutes for the doctor to complete all the necessary scanning procedures for my little baby.

This moment was truely the best moment ever, seeing a life living in my womb. I saw the face, I saw the mouth chewing/drinking something from the amnion fluid in my placenta, I saw the brain, I saw the nose+nose bone, I saw the heart together with the injap(s), I saw the kidney, I saw the backbone, lips,fingers, the *** of the baby (yipppeeee)...and also i heard the heartbeat (even though just for few seconds since its 4D scanning and more heat is transferred to the baby, so the doc decided not to do it for long)

Ayah was pissed off that he can't follow mummy to see you last friday. But mummy brings back the 3D pic of ur face and explain all one by one to Ayah about the scanning from A-Z. Ayah was pleased to see your picture and confirm mummy that you has mummy's chin and ayah's head (InsyaAllah)...ayah keeps asking mummy lots of question bout the scanning since he wasn't there. pity him that he has to many work in the office=(urgh...

you are so cute sayang when mummy saw u. mummy hopes you're doing fine and safe in my womb. As doc said, Alhamdulillah the anomaly scan shows normal result (insyAllah-praises to Allah). You gonna turn 22 weeks this Wednesday and there will be another 15-18weeks before mummy can touch and hear you, insyaAllah.

oh yes, nenek also bought some baju, socks, mittens and towels for you.and nenek has made barut for u and mummy.and currently nenek is knitting your blanket. you must sayang nenek as she does for u.and btw tok dad also proud saying bout u in front of uncle jimmy and aunty madam last week, that shows he loves u already!

Tok mak will be coming back from Mecca this Friday and mummy gonna bring u ( i mean my bulat tummy) to see tok mak and tok wan. both of the also loves u so much.Tok wan is excited to receive his first cucu. Both of them were so pleased to pray for ur safety in front of Kaabah.

ok sayang,mummy need to go back home. mummy in the office now.
